Piezoelectrically actuated devices constructed from thin semiconductor membranes bonded directly to piezoelectric substrates are provided. Methods for fabricating these devices are also provided. The bonding of the semiconductor to the piezoelectric material does not require the use of any intermediate layers, such as bonding agents.
Josephson junctions (JJ) based on bilayers of azimuthally misaligned two-dimensional materials having superconducting states are provided. Also provided are electronic devices and circuits incorporating the JJs as active components and methods of using the electronic devices and circuits. The JJs are formed from bilayers composed of azimuthally misaligned two-dimensional materials having a first superconducting segment and a second superconducting segment separated by a weak-link region that is integrated into the bilayer.
